Arrival
I always thought that my beautiful wife never took a blind bit of notice of me. Especially when it came to my mutterings regarding classic British sports cars. All these years and finally (after nearly 40 of them) Shazza utters the words. "Darling, there's a Triumph Spitfire listed on Gumtree and it's not far down the road. Why don't you have a look."
Less than 24 hours later and after some friendly haggling with the now PO, here it is, sitting on my driveway after a short ride on the back of a tilt-tray truck,
Now known as Godfrey, this is mostly a 1966 Spitfire mk2. The amount I know about Spitties, you could fit on the head of a pin. I feel this is about to change.
